About this listen

 Maria, or The Wrongs of Woman, is an unfinished novel by Mary Wollstonecraft, serving as a compelling sequel to her groundbreaking political treatise, A Vindication of the Rights of Woman. Published posthumously in 1798 by her husband, William Godwin, the story follows a woman unjustly confined in an insane asylum by her husband, highlighting the broader societal injustices faced by women rather than focusing solely on individual experiences. Released alongside Wollstonecrafts memoirs, both works stirred controversy and were deemed scandalous in their time. It wasnt until the 20th century that Maria was recognized as a significant historical and feminist text. (Summary by Wikipedia)
